In Local trade (i.e., between places within the waters of the Colony) there is a decrease in Steam-Launches of 26,794 and a decrease in tonnage of 454,540 tons or 3.8 per cent in numbers and 2.6 per cent in tonnage. This decrease in numbers and tonnage is due to a number of launches being laid up during the year on account of the high cost of fuel.

Junks in Local Trade show an increase of 5,199 vessels and an increase of 24,412 tons or 22.8 per cent in numbers and 18 per cent in tonnage. This increase in vessels and tonnage is due principally to the improvement of trade and the installing of the Junk Office at Shaukiwan.

4. Of vessels of European construction 6,484 Ocean Steamers, 4,715 River Steamers, and 3,856 steamships not exceeding 60 tons entered during the year, giving a daily average of 41.2 ships as compared with 34.7 ships in 1923 and 33.2 ships in 1922.

The average tonnage of Individual Ocean vessels entering the Port has increased from 2,053.2 to 2,129.8 tons, British Ships from 2,070.9 to 2,234.3 tons, Foreign Ships from 2,040.3 to 2,057.6 tons.

5. The average tonnage of Individual River Steamers entering during the year has increased from 628.1 to 659.8 tons, British River Steamers from 809.9 to 819.5 tons, and Foreign River Steamers from 332.7 to 340.3 tons.

6. The actual number of Individual Ocean-going vessels of European construction during the year 1924 was 1,123, of which 416 were British and 707 Foreign. In 1923 the corresponding figures were 1,186, 529 British and 657 Foreign.

These 1,123 ships measured 3,552,722 tons, entered 6,484 times, and gave a collective tonnage of 13,809,974 tons.

Thus 63 less Ships entered 163 more times and gave a collective tonnage greater by 830,941 tons, an average of 5,097.7 tons per entry.
